Varang, the “aggressive, volcanic” leader of the Ash People, will be portrayed by Chaplin.
Leading up to the release of Avatar:
Way of Water producer Jon Landau has dropped teasing and tidbits about the franchise’s future as to whether more sequels should be made. It’s been lit a long time ago, and the film almost inevitably hit the balance sheet, becoming the top five, then the top four, and possibly the top three movies of all time.
Now that the franchise’s future is secured, Landau has released details of what fans can expect in the future, along with some new information about antagonists Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldanha, who will battle on the next flight to Pandora.
Landau reveals that the fight needs to be brought closer to home, while Jake Sully and Neytiri continue to fend off ravenous human threats. He revealed that he is seen in a more positive light than just a blank-screen villain.

There are both good and bad people, according to Landau. The Na’vi side experiences the same issue. People frequently do not view themselves negatively. What is the fundamental reason why they develop into what we consider to be negative? It’s possible that there are more components there that we are not aware of.
Oona Chaplin to play a villain in Avatar 3
Namely, Game of Thrones Oona Chaplin has admitted to playing Varane, the alleged leader of the Ash People, and describes her as an “aggressive person. The ‘Vulcan race’ of the Na’vi.”
Chaplin is best known for her role in Game of Thrones, where she played Talitha Maygill, a Volantis healer who follows Rob Stark (Richard Madden) and his army in the series. After acting, he fell in love with the King of the North and he finally married – before a tragic ending. When she was cast four years ago, she described the franchise as a “Trojan horse movie.”
The Path of Water will not be the last work seen in Pandora’s Seas. Especially the heartbreaking character of Payakhan in Turkun, or the whale-talking giant character in Pandora who has post-traumatic stress disorder, and his relationship with Roak (Walton, UK), Jake and Neytiri’s son. “We see Payakhan as a character rather than just a creature, and we will continue to explore his relationship with Roak.”
